Whitewater Kayaking

**Brief description:** Starting our journey in Walenstadt, we set off on a spectacular hike along the northern part of the Walensee towards Weesen. The trail leads us through forests and along rocky paths, rewarding us with magnificent panoramic views of the lake and the majestic Churfirsten mountain range. Along the way, we will hike through the charming, car-free village of Quinten with its unique Mediterranean flair, and then pass the Seerenbach Falls, one of the highest free-falling waterfalls in Switzerland, before finally reaching our destination in Weesen. During our break in Quinten, we can go for a refreshing swim in the lake and enjoy lunch in some of the restaurants. **Komoot Link:** [https://www.komoot.com/de-de/tour/2988439408](https://www.komoot.com/de-de/tour/2988439408) **Key data** Length: 20,1 km Ascent: 730 m Descent: 720 m Duration without breaks: approx. 6:52 hours Technical difficulty: according to Komoot SAC T2.

Der Lützelsee ist bekannt für seine landschaftliche Schönheit. In der friedlichen Stille der Landschaft können wir erleben, wie in uns heilsame Energien frei werden. Ein besonderes Erlebnis bietet die Zeit um die Sommersonnwende, die wir bei Vollmond nutzen, um in tiefere Ebenen unseres Bewusstseins, jenseits des Alltagsbewusstseins, einzutauchen. Bei Vollmond erreicht unser Energielevel das Maximum. Dies in Verbindung mit langanhaltendem rhythmischem Gehen ermöglicht uns eine bewusste Grenzerfahrung in körperlicher, psychischer und geistiger Hinsicht. Wir umrunden den Lützelsee langsam im Schweigen. Jeder kann eigene Uebungen mitbringen, z.B. Meditationen, Mantras, Gebete, Traumyoga etc. In einigen tantrischen Traditionen geht man davon aus, dass das erste Chakra unter den Fusssohlen zu finden ist. Wird dieses Fusschakra durch längeres Gehen aktiviert, öffnen sich alle anderen Chakren und heilende Energien fliessen bis zum Kronenchakra. All dies kann bei der Wanderung ausprobiert werden. Eine einmalige Gelegenheit. Die Wanderung beginnt bei Sonnenuntergang (21:11) und endet mit dem Sonnenaufgang (5:33). Wir umrunden den Lützelsee insgesamt sieben Mal. Nach jeder Umrundung machen wir 10 Minuten Pause. Wer möchte, kann uns auch nur für eine oder ein paar Runden begleiten und im Schlafsack Pause machen. Seltene Gelegenheit, kann aus Wettergründen nur ungefähr alle 2 Jahre durchgeführt werden. Kollekte zugunsten von Pro Natura Mehr Fotos, Details, incl Tourenblatt, siehe: https://www.bernhardeisenbarth.ch/meditation/meditatives-wandern/#cc-m-header-14603870927

**Warning: sbb path doesn't exist anymore.

There are several place for a BBQ along the way. Next to the Greifensee ([Der Greifensee – Google My Maps](https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1oVWQ3DGKt98YlWetNA2tXANnwC4&ll=47.32319246383582%2C8.619336872970429&z=14)), at point 9 on the map and probably along the zurich lake. We can decide in the dedicated whatsapp group which one to take or choose spontaneously. We also can go swimming in the Greifensee and/or Zürich lake. The Final destination is the Church Neumünster where the OKVZ concert take place. **concert description :** 2 times per year the OKVZ organize very nice concerts. more information about the music programm: [Konzerte – OKVZ](https://okvz.ch/aktuelle-konzerte/) It is free but donation to the OKVZ are welcome.

(Because message in a WhatsApp channel can be read by a new member only 30 days before he joins. But you can already enter the corresponding WhatsApp group) If you are concerned about privacy, only the admin of a WhatsApp channel can see who has voted in a poll (unlike a WhatsApp group). Please sign up only when you are certain! You can also register through Meetup, as it helps build momentum; however, I rely only on the number of people who signed up through the WhatsApp survey.

We'll meet at The Capital One Café, 167 Easton Town Center, Space A-103. This is in the main mall where the Microsoft store used to be, on your left if you're standing at the bottom of the AMC Theater escalator. Join us on Saturday for an hour of uninterrupted wordmaking! • What we'll do Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 10AM on Saturday mornings. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: 10:00 - SESSION 1: quick intros. 10:10 - timer starts: write for 1 hour. 11:10 - chat / take off / keep writing. OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 11A-11:30ish. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. (I’ll be the person with the Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you! • What to bring Whatever you need to be able to write!

Greetings writers! Come down and join your fellow wordsmiths for one hour of uninterrupted writing time in the upper level of the Market District Supermarket in Upper Arlington. The main entrance of the shopping center opens onto stairs/elevator leading up to the 2nd floor cafe section where we will have a table displaying a sign with the Shut Up & Write logo. Writing is largely a solitary craft. Practicing with others in a community setting may be the thing you need to fire your own routine. We’ll meet on Wednesday evenings, starting the clock at 6:30, following a brief period of introductions. This is solid writing time and all inclusive. Any project is acceptable, be it fiction, non -fiction, work or homework assignment. All is welcome and will remain private to you. The market boasts a Starbucks, a full service bar and various affordable food options. Parking is plentiful, free Wifi is provided as well as outlets for charging your devices, though they are somewhat limited, so plan accordingly. Show up as early as you like, or stay late. This group tends to socialize some, both before and after the alloted time, but this is not mandatory to you. Feel free to come and go as you please and late arrivals are welcome. The cafe may be noisy on occasion so headphones/ earbuds are reccommended as you see fit. Please try to RSVP if possible so that we may grab enough seats for all—the venue can be busy at times. Feel free to message me privately wth any questions and/ or concerns you may have. Happy writing!
